The Cattle Queen's Gamble

Tamsin Rook isn't considered a lady.

She wrangles alien cattle, wrestles wayward brothers, and carries a barrel of nuts across the stars as payment for a promise: Lord Xander Cassian swears he could turn any woman into a refined lady. Even her.

All she needs is polish, poise, and the right connections to marry the mayor's son back home—securing a future for her family. What she doesn't need is the maddening presence of her ship's captain, Kace Kerrigan, who claims he can't see why he's helping her…until he can't look away from her laugh, her grit, or the softness she hides beneath her callouses.

But Cassian keeps his word, taking her on as a project—despite only nuts for payment, a barroom brawl (or two), and a gown ruined in the process. Faced with Xander's steadfastness and Kace's charm, Tamsin finds herself torn between two very different men, who both want her for who she really is.

Tamsin must decide between a loveless match of convenience or risking her heart on the unexpected. Will she play the lady for security…or let love rewrite her future among the stars?
